I saw it too, but it had this song, which I'm about to expose, as the biggest, but it appears wrong based on that. Will scrap it.
Unlucky PoP... keep trying.

Reckon the billboard one will be late 80's or early 90's when pop was corporatised. So I'll go for New Kids or Boys II Men.
6 has to be some poppy act like Britney Spears, N*Sync or Backstreet Boys
John Lennon was pronounced dead at 11.15pm on 8th December 1980, however; as mes soon figured out, it was 4-5am on 9th in the UK, or 'Liverpool' as the question asked - Bonus point for mes for deciphering the trick in the question and also for PoP for knowing it was early(ish) December. Never easy to guess an actual date.
The answer to the most consecutive Billboard Top 100 #1's is... Whitney Houston
Unless you're a huge fan, Blur might not easy at all, it was... The Magic Whip

Have watched some of those wings of pegasus videos. Particularly the ones where he was going up against some weirdo American country christian dude who denied miming. Was interesting but it seems like every single video is basically just the same thing (though obviously this one is going to do the opposite).
Might put a few more up from time to time and see how it goes. It does appear there was no googling here, which helps putting 10 out at once.
Hazel o Connor also top 10 with decadent days
Saw her during mega hype tour performing on crurches
after she fell off stage at Brighton.
